Today we focused on the touch of skin to skin. We played with the surface. We attempted to be with each other sensitive to the fine hairs on our arms and necks and legs. The title of the hymn “abide with me” was floated!

In this we de-emphasised what is maybe our default orientation the task orientation of joint and skeletal proprioception.

What emerged was a lighter, fluidity, an ease of opening both in throwing and being thrown, a permission to be borne. The qualities were both diaphonous and snakeish!
